Port Talbot, in Neath Port Talbot, had a population of around 37,000 at the 2021 census — a steel town that also happens to be the birthplace of a knighted screen legend.
A steel town that shaped a screen legend
Port Talbot grew rapidly around its docks and, from the 1950s, one of Europe's largest steelworks, which for decades employed thousands of local families. The town is also the birthplace of Sir Anthony Hopkins, born in 1937, with the actor Richard Burton having grown up in the local area, in the nearby village of Pontrhydyfen.
What that history doesn't leave behind
Port Talbot's steel and screen history doesn't come with a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
Why Port Talbot shoppers order online anyway
For anything past a corner-shop bag, ordering online is more consistent — no trip into Swansea or Bridgend required.
